While we presently have top order and fielding concerns wicket keeping is also an area we seriously need to look into.
Present wicket keeper batsman - Rahim though showed a lot composure and grittiness with some fighting innings in some recent matches. However, his wicket keeping is an area that needs improvement.
When a wicket keeper lapse occurs at critical stages it shatters the hopes of the team, nation and it could be very demoralizing for the suffering bowler.
That is not say the wicketkeeper will have a 100 % clean record. No wicketkeeper can claim that.
The solution is very simple .
We all know two Great Wicketkeeper Batsmen of the Subcontinent – Syed Ali Kirmani ( India ) and Rashed Latif (Pakistan).
We need to Hire one of these guys on an Ad hoc basis may be 1-2 months to fine tune the wicket keeping skills of Rahim and other Upcoming ones like Mithun Ali and others.
In conclusion Rahim’s job as a key member of the team a team is 50% job done. No worries about his batting skills and abilities. He is a proven customer on this aspect
His wicket keeping – worrying for Team, Fans and the Nation. Also he is a potential captain being an Active member of 5 Musketeers run leadership we have. Unless he improves his wicket keeping skills he will eventually lose his spot and also deprive the nation of a potential future captain.
I would welcome any suggestions.
